Hi Denis,
The majority of the options in the menus never have been obvious to me. (And I suspect to most users) The config file says: "progressive scaling of bitmap backgrounds" which also does not indicate that it does what you just wrote. Sorry for my confusion here, but I doubt I'm the only one.
I think if the program crashes, regardless of the user's settings, this is clearly a...

Great!!! You also fixed a couple bugs I was planning to attack this weekend. ;)
1) You seem to be loading the entire document at startup. This is baaad as it will crash if you load a document that's too long. Better to only load a page or two ahead of the current viewing position.
2) Zooming in will also cause a crash (because it will re-render the entire document at the larger size and...

No IRC that I know of. Why don't you start one? (irc.freenode.net) Denis is convinced no one else wants to hack xournal. I think there is evidence to the contrary... ;)
You're probably more likely to get a response if you post a message on the mailing list though.

Simplifying bgpdf is making my head hurt. We have many functions with
overlapping and duplicated duties:
init_pdf
rescale_bg_pixmaps
update_page_stuff
update_bg
update_canvas_bg
render_pdf_page
create_page_with_bg
I think I can replace these with just two functions:
open_bg (detects file type ps/pdf/svg/xoj and does things from init_pdf...

I'm not aware of pdf's it fails to load. I'm aware it fails if you try to load a pdf in the same session (have to fix that...). But if you have a different bug, could you let me know how it is failing and/or send me the pdf/xoj that is causing trouble?.

I think both "Antialiased Bitmaps" and "Progressive Backgrounds" should go away. The GnomeCanvas is antialiased itself, whether we want it or not. Do you agree? If not, I need to understand better what they do...

Added version 0.0.6, which fixes a g_object_unref error, removes some extraneous debug output, and actually renders the last page of a pdf file.

This patch uses the Poppler pdf library to render pdf's for xournal. Perhaps
the most noticeable improvements are that it fixes some off-by-one errors in
the original code that made pdf's look fuzzy, is a lot faster, and consumes a
lot less memory. In the long term, using Poppler is desirable because it
enables text searching, and hopefully someday storing annotations in the pdf...

The second patch, xournal_save_default_path.patch will save the path from which a file was loaded on the command line. So when you save-as it will show you the directory that the file on the command line lives in, rather than your default path. Very useful in combination with xournal_load_pdf_xoj_for_pdf.patch.

Since xournal saves its annotations by default to *.pdf.xoj files, this small patch will load the .pdf.xoj file corresponding to the .pdf file, if passed on the command line. This is useful for third-party tools which load .pdf files. For instance if you browse pdf's in nautilus and open them with xournal, you will see your annotations.
I use Zotero for managing my references, which also...
